Artwork rumoured to be ‘Banksy’ has been found in Bridgwater<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n The mural is believed to be the work of an artist under the pseudonym\u00a0Disney.B32, who has previously created similar work in places such as the\u00a0Old Colonial off Weston-super-Mare seafront.\n<\/p>\n

\n Disney.B32 has kept their real identity a secret. Creating artwork around the county in places like Brean, Bridgwater, Weston, and many more, the creative is considered Somerset’s answer to the\u00a0notorious artist, Banksy.\n<\/p>\n
\n Previously, similar artwork that was confirmed to be Disney’s work was found on the Weston seafront.\n<\/p>\n
\n This work features a young girl leaning down wearing Nike Air Force trainers with puckered-up lips and a heart sign used with her hands. All of the art had been used in black and white paint.\n<\/p>\n

\n In a past interview with the team at the Weston Mercury, the artist cited\u00a0people, culture and society as his main source for\u00a0inspiration.\n<\/p>\n
\n “My mind is always active to what is going on around me and how I can interpret that through art to get a point across or just to put a smile on people’s face, so people, culture and society is my inspiration\u201d, Disney said.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cI do seem to travel down south just to get out of Birmingham; I go wherever my art takes me. I do not have a preference where I paint; places seem to call out to me.\u201d\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n Disney also uses artwork to mark important events in the UK\u2019s history. He is often mistaken for Banksy, the Bristol-based pseudonymous street artist, who hosted the Dismaland art project in Weston-super-Mare back in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Black and white artwork depicting a young boy sitting down in tears has been seen on the Surf…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":443798,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[6225,6485,6486,1120,96,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-443797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arts-and-design","tag-arts","tag-arts-and-design","tag-artsanddesign","tag-design","tag-entertainment","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=443797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/443797\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/443798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=443797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=443797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=443797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
